Get a Level 1 avalanche certificate course and a fully guided, catered yurt trip for not much more than a town-based avalanche course! Bell Lake's immersive, high-country environment takes avalanche education where it belongs: into the mountains. For three days and two nights, our experienced, professional instructors take you through the tools, practices, and attitudes that are required to safely enjoy a lifetime in the backcountry. All courses follow current American Avalanche Association standards.
With a maximum class size of eight (vs. up to 18 in other courses), students receive personalized attention and the best quality experience possible, while forging new friendships. And in order to practice our new skills, we spend plenty of time learning and skiing in the field.
Price includes professional instruction, two nights at beautiful Bell Lake Yurt, all snacks, beverages and delicious, homestyle meals, a certificate of completion, and plenty of powder! See a calendar of courses HERE.
NOTE: Bell Lake Yurt Level1 avalanche courses take place in the backcountry. The approach to our yurt is 2.5 miles and 1,600 feet, which usually takes around three hours of skinning with a daypack and sleeping bag. Please be physically prepared.
